Self-confidence can help children build positive relationships with other children, work together, and make children have good communication skills. However, self-confidence has not been optimally stimulated in some kindergarten schools in the Karawang district. Many children are found who are not confident when speaking in front of the class, some children are difficult to invite to group play activities. This study wanted to find out the effect of using CB Hoop media on children^s Self confidence in children aged 5-6 years. This research used a one-group pretest and posttest experimental design involving 15 children aged 5-6 years from Karawang Regency. The data was analyzed using the T-Test technique. From the research that has been conducted in 15 meetings, the data shows that there is a positive influence of CB Hoop media on children^s self-confidence. Children become more confident when speaking in front of the class, or talking to new people because they are trained to have the courage to speak while playing using CB Hoop media.
